TEN THINGS YOU DIDNT KNOW

[claret-tinkerer.livejournal.com]

Okay so here's the deal. I'm bored, and want to write down some things I need to remember about my characters. But why post these where no one will see, I asked myself. So.

MEME!

RULES

1. Post with your character
2. Post ten things that you believe are true about your character - yes, go ahead and headcanon this right on up, I personally like that sort of thing.
3. observe others
4. relish information


It is very simple and fun for everyon's edification! Likewise we can learn more about new characters we have round these parts, and be happy.

CAPTAIN BARBOSSA

[left4undead.livejournal.com]

1. He became Pirate Lord of the Caspian Sea after he was cursed. Shortly before the infamous voyage to Isla de Muerta, Barbossa served as first mate under Jack Sparrow during a battle involving the Pirate Lords. The former Caspian Lord insulted both Barbossa's swordsmanship and sailing ability. He never forgot, and challenged the former lord to a duel, knowing full well he could not die.
2. He won't admit it to his crew, but the curse has made Barbossa consider the choices in his life to some degree. He plans to give control of the Pearl to one of his crew shortly after the curse is lifted, and wants to retire as a landed gentleman, perhaps somewhere off the coast of Spain.
3. Barbossa served on the East India vessel The Wicked Wench as a cabin boy before he joined a pirate crew. The Wench would later be renamed The Black Pearl by Jack Sparrow.
4. He's a talented piano player(META JOKE ALERT).
5. Despite the way he berates the pair, he actually has a soft spot for Ragetti and Pintel, Ragetti in particular, due to shared backgrounds. His faith in Ragetti gave him a trustworthy, and unlikely, guardian for his Piece o' Eight.
6. Barbossa roamed the seas in Singapore before joining the crew of the Black Pearl, and learned sword fighting techniques from Oriental masters.
7. He anonymously sends a portion of his plunder to his parents, brother and sister in Spain. Knowing his law abiding family would disapprove of his vocation, they also believe him to be dead.
8. One of his most prized possessions is the diary of Cortez. In addition to the potential solution to the Aztec Curse, it is filled with arcane lore of the seas and the locations of many treasures scattered across the former Spanish Empire.
9. In addition to its usual attacks, the cursed Black Pearl often attacks slaver ships, giving the ships to the former cargo.
10. Captain Barbossa found Jack(the monkey) on a supply stop at a lost island. This island may or may not have had both a Secret and a Curse, leading him to Escape from it.
